New Jersey is remembering why it used to shun Republicans.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has been in office for just three months, and a new eyewitness news poll shows voters are not giving him any kind of a honeymoon as he presses for budget cuts.
Only 33% of New Jersey residents approve the job Christie is doing as governor.
Nearly twice the number, 63% disapprove.
Christie says he doesn't give a shit what people think, and even threw in a bit of a whopper:
"Almost everyone of those polls said I wasn't going to win too, well, here I am," said Governor Christie.
Actually, Christie led pretty much the entire campaign:
Almost all of those polls, until the very end, had Christie blowing out Corzine.
But whatever, he's a Republican, he lies. It goes with the territory. It's one of the reasons why New Jersey voters are suddenly wishing they had chosen otherwise.
And if national trends continue, and Republicans make their expected gains this November, it won't take long for people to sour on those votes as well. It's too late for New Jersey voters. But it's not too late for the rest of America. Hopefully, they can come to their senses before it's too late.
